A challenge?

22 Oct 2010

A friend of mine, an artist by trade, is working on a piece and needs some assistance with some lighting. So I thought, what a better place to ask than a site full of engineers?

 

Heres the problem, there is one standard canvas (Presumably painted) that needs to be back lit. Previous attempts have shown standard LED torches are not enough, multiple lamps (Assuming desk lamps) are enough, however there is a problem with the canvas burning. Can anyone suggest a suitable way to do it on a low budget?

 

It is a long shot, but maybe there is something we have missed image

 

In other news, work on my main project has moved to focus on moving the system to an ARM processor. Problem is it is being designed with a mbed and will need to be moved to a stand alone chip. Thats going to be fun for me!

    Hi Alistair,

    That looks perfect from my point of view, I shall pass it on! Thanks!

    Certainly beats the other idea of hacking together one.
